This dialog box allows you to change some system global options of the program. You can change the following parameters in different tabs:

SMTP Servers– This tab allows you to Add, Change or Delete SMTP Servers. Use Add, Delete, Change hot links located in the upper right corner of this window

Number of SMTP connections – This will define the number of connections and the number of active threads at the same time. The more connections you will have, the more speed you will gain. However, if you have a slow internet connection and you specify too many threads, they will all be fighting for the bandwidth

Default Throttling – You can specify the default throttling here. If you omit the throttling in the schedule, or you don’t specify the schedule at all, these will be used by default

Operation Delay – Some old SMTP Servers cannot receive the email messages with the speeds Advanced Emailer can send them out. This can lead to lost messages and other errors. If you see that happening, you can change this value to about 200-300 milliseconds. This is a delay between each send and receive operation. Giving this delay to a server, will let it digest your messages at it’s pace

POP3 Settings – This tab allows you to specify all the details about POP3 servers which you may want to use to automatically parse subscription and unsubscription requests from your clients that are arriving in a regular email. You can Add, Edit and Delete POP3 servers here. When you are configuring each individual POP3 server, you will need to provide the following information:

Hostname – is the hostname or IP address of the POP3 server

Port – In most cases you will leave this as a default (110). Only if you have non standard POP3 server, or you installed POP3 server yourself, on a different port, you will need to change the port.

User Name – is the ID you use to connect to the server

Password – is the password you use to authenticate yourself to the server.

Delete mails from server – Check that box if you want the email messages to be deleted from the server once they are parsed by this program. If you leave the messages on the server, any time you connect to the server and read the messages again in the future, they will still be there, causing the subscribe/unsubscribe operation to be repeated. It is advisable to delete subscribe and unsubscribe messages from the POP3 server after you read and parse them. Note that only subscribe or unsubscribe messages will be deleted. If you have a mailbox containing messages with other subjects, they will be left untouched in the server, allowing you to read them later with your regular email client, such as Outlook or Outlook Express.

In addition to the above information for each individual server, you must provide information about subject keywords. You can type multiple keywords (one per line) in subscribe and unsubscribe boxes. When this program parses the message, it will look for these words in the subject line. If one of the words is found, the message is considered a valid subscribe/unsubscribe and is parsed further, otherwise it will be skipped. Also, specify the symbols for field’s delimiter and text qualifier. See how to subscribe and how to unsubscribe

File Types – here you can add or delete all the file extensions that will be used by default when you import recipients

Domains – here you can add or delete the domains you will be using when you import recipients

Preferences – Here you can specify the user interface preferences that you like:

Colors – specify the colors that you like for the recipients. When the recipient is sent a message it is marked in the database as a success or an error. You can change the color for success or the error here.
